@orion: I just bought your game too. I wanted to buy it a while ago, and forgot to... and I actually did the translation of Atari version's manual :-D
BOBC SE sales still do not go up that much. We got a few sales coming from abroad, so thanks to those of you who support this project! :cool:
maybe it's a communication problem ?Quote:

But 45 euros is still a little something to drop (I am running out of money those days), and the game I will get for this amount of money seems totally unclear by watching the video trailer and the order website page. You guys should explain more clearly (or just simply explain) the concept of the game, how it plays, what's the goal, etc (I am seeing a jet running for the left to the right of the screen dropping a bomb without understanding how it plays and what's the point). Even if it's a homebrew scene with a mega-hardcore-sega-fans customer target, I think you should explain the project more when you sell it. everything should be a bit more explicit (how the game was created, how it plays, a word from the dev, etc)
That's a valuable feedback! Thank you!
We do not have full control on the ordering page, so we'll just go rogue! :-)
I will check with Vetea if we can do a short film.
The graphist made a nice illustration explaining how BOBC works on one shalk board. I'll post it later today. It says a lot!
Stay tuned!
EDIT: here is the picture explaining BOBC SE in a nutshell: https://twitter.com/iamgunpog/status...10309251420160
EDIT2: Here is a gameplay video of BOBC SE

PS: I just made some suggestions and a little bit of debugging on this game. I am not the editor!
Is there a breakdown of scoring mechanics, etc?
You get something like 5 points per block destroyed, and up to 15 points per unit hit (depends on its grade).
You get a combo multiplication valid during each round (a round being one trip from left to right end of the screen).
You can use specific bombs to increase your score even more (there is a piercing one, and a big one to collect).
For the rest... It goes beyond my knowledge! :D
EDIT: And don't ask me about the score in Papi Tennis demo included... This goes reaaaaaally beyond my understanding! Never understood this sport! :p
Curious... Why isn't there a Sega 16 or Paprium discord? Not enough following?
Bam! I made one. How do we want to handle invites?Quote:

Ah thanks. Like a video chat or something? My social media knowledge and usage are extremely minimal.
AFAIK you can type and talk, not sure about video.
I'm not a big fan of this service and find forums more convenient to get updated about new releases and stuff.
It can help while developing a game, though.

For me a forum like this works better than discord. Discord conversations are ongoing and topic channels are real time unlike forumns. Also I'm so saturated with discord channels now that I tend to just stick with a couple.
Both forums (long-term archived) and chat (real-time) have their own place (the former is better at discussions that take a while and for keeping track of old things as well as searching them, the latter is better at ephemeral comments and for seeking help on the spot). It irks me when people keep talking like one should replace the other while ignoring that they work better at different tasks. In practice you want both.
Although admittedly it irks me even more when people suggest that Facebook groups should replace forums… besides requiring a Facebook account (with all the ugly shit that comes with it) those are also very much designed to discourage any discussions (・～・) (Facebook's goal is to keep shoving you the next cat video in the queue, after all)
Forums have been since the beginning of the Internets for a reason. The other forms just come and go. It's mostly the same thing with e-mail.
